The MCU may draw the crowds, but it always goes empty-handed at the Oscars. And even with the nominations. However, a pioneer has now broken this spell. Queen Ramonda actress Angela Bassett from Black Panther: Wakanda Forever was nominated for an Oscar for Best Supporting Actress. (Click here for all Oscar nominations)
In the MCU, no one comes close to Black Panther 2 star Angela Bassett
This represents a small revolution. There have already been Oscar nominations and even Oscar wins for MCU projects, but never in an acting category. Black Panther took home three awards in 2019 for costume design, production design and soundtrack composition.
Even compared to the other greats of the superhero:inside genre, Bassett stands almost alone in the field. Heath Ledger and Joaquin Phoenix have been won an Oscar for her role as Joker. With Ledger, this happened posthumously.
Bassett recently won her MCU role at the Golden Globes. The fight for the Oscar will certainly not get any easier. She competes in her category with Hong Chau (The Whale), Kerry Condon (The Banshees of Inisherin), Jamie Lee Curtis and Stephanie Hsu (both Everything Everywhere All at Once).
When will the 2023 Oscars take place?
The Academy Awards will be held this year on March 12, 2023 forgive. Late night talker Jimmy Kimmel will host the awards for the third time. The event will take place at the Dolby Theater in Los Angeles.
